The ad in Trains magazine (Nov 2011, P79)

[GaryG]

This is an ad obviously written for North American purchasers. It was definitely not proof-read by anyone with real knowledge about locomotives (North American or European).

Who will mention the error first? (No, there is no prize so don't go out to buy a copy just to see)

The error isn't mentioned in that thread... (at least not the two words that are incorrect)

I think another great source of new players of RW3
could come from The Rail channel.
They have shown several videos of The Horseshoe Curve.
Advertise there. Lots of rail fans watch every week, me for one

"Follow tutorials to learn how to use the accurately-created controls, including switches, hydraulic train brakes and steam injectors."

I guess that's why the brakes react somewhat differently! The next update will have the brake pedal included.

Technically, this train used Hydraulic Retarders: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Passenger_Train

"The British prototype Advanced Passenger Train (APT) used hydraulic retarders to allow the high-speed train to stop in the same distance as standard lower speed trains, as a pure friction-based system was not viable."
